SAFE. FUN. EPIC.
The Coolest Thing You Can Do As A San Diego Native Or Visiting Wave Rider.
Recharge Your Surf Soul
This surf trip is an amazing experience. If you're in a slump or need a reboot, this is a good way to get you back into a surfing adventure mindset.
Captaining these trips reminds me of the first time I jumped off a boat in Indonesia back in 1996. I remember it as clear as day. Captain Tony Montana negotiated the through the reef then he pulled up his colorful catamaran-style ponga to the waves. I took a deep breath, smiled, and jumped off. It was pretty surreal to take a few paddle strokes straight into an empty line-up. It was very very cool. Now, here's your opportunity to experience something just as memorable.
Like all Epic Surf Trips, it's always about Respecting The Locals, Keeping Safety As Priority #1 & Being Grateful To Ride These Magical Empty Waves.

On your way out of San Diego Bay and towards the surf, I'll point out many of the amazing sights & facts about "America's Finest City." From the local Kumeyaay nation to the current military presence, San Diego Bay is full of noteworthy history.
You will be briefed on surfing etiquette, safety and respect. Respecting the surfers that have been going to these beautiful waves for decades is a priority.
*Epic Boat Trips need to be booked 13 hours before the departure date.
On the way out to the beautiful breaks, you will be briefed on the breaks and more importantly, respect. Respecting the locals, the reefs, and Mother Nature is just shy of our priority… SAFETY. When the waves are pumping, we could expect a crowd out there. On the other hand, we could end up being the only ones in the lineup. Your best option for empty waves will be midweek.
Once you’re confirmed, you'll be sent an Epic Boat Trip info sheet with details on what to bring and expect. This trip is four and a half hours from beginning to end. No need for a suitcase. Simply show up ready to surf.
